  SA 451. Mr. SCHUMER (for himself, Ms. Mikulski, Ms. Stabenow, Mr. 
Dodd, Mrs. Boxer, Mr. Dorgan, Mr. Lieberman, Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Akaka, 
Mr. Durbin, and Mrs. Feinstein) proposed an amendment to the bill H.R. 
1268, making emergency supplemental appropriations for the fiscal year 
ending September 30, 2005, to establish and rapidly implement 
regulations for State driver's license and identification document 
security standards, to prevent terrorists from abusing the asylum laws 
of the United States, to unify terrorism-related grounds for 
inadmissibility and removal, to ensure expeditious construction of the 
San Diego border fence, and for other purposes; as follows:

       On page 231, between lines 3 and 4, insert the following:
       Sec. 6047.(a) Congress finds that--
       (1) the prices of gasoline and crude oil have a direct and 
     substantial impact on the financial well-being of families of 
     the United States, the potential for national economic 
     recovery, and the economic security of the United States;
       (2) on April 12, 2005, crude oil prices closed at the 
     exceedingly high level of $51.86 per barrel and the price of 
     crude oil has remained above $50 per barrel since February 
     22, 2005;
       (3) on April 11, 2005, the Energy Information 
     Administration announced that the national price of gasoline, 
     at $2.28 per gallon--
       (A) had set a new record high for a 4th consecutive week;
       (B) was $0.49 higher than last year; and
       (C) could reach even higher levels in the near future;
       (4) despite the severely high, sustained price of crude 
     oil--
       (A) the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries 
     (referred to in this section as ``OPEC'') has refused to 
     adequately increase production to calm global oil markets and 
     officially abandoned its $22-$28 price target; and
       (B) officials of OPEC member nations have publicly 
     indicated support for maintaining oil prices of $40-$50 per 
     barrel;
       (5) the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (referred to in this 
     section as ``SPR'') was created to enhance the physical and 
     economic security of the United States;
       (6) the law allows the SPR to be used to provide relief 
     when oil and gasoline supply shortages cause economic 
     hardship;
       (7) the proper management of the resources of the SPR could 
     provide gasoline price relief to families of the United 
     States and provide the United States with a tool to 
     counterbalance OPEC supply management policies;
       (8) the Administration's current policy of filling the SPR 
     despite the fact that the SPR

[[Page S3755]]

     is more than 98 percent full has exacerbated the rising price 
     of crude oil and record high retail price of gasoline;
       (9) in order to combat high gasoline prices during the 
     summer and fall of 2000, President Clinton released 
     30,000,000 barrels of oil from the SPR, stabilizing the 
     retail price of gasoline;
       (10) increasing vertical integration has allowed--
       (A) the 5 largest oil companies in the United States to 
     control almost as much crude oil production as the Middle 
     Eastern members of OPEC, over of domestic refiner capacity, 
     and over 60 percent of the retail gasoline market; and
       (B) the top 10 oil companies in the world to make more than 
     $100,000,000,000 in profit and in some instances to post 
     record-breaking fourth quarter earnings that were in some 
     cases more than 200 percent higher than the previous year;
       (11) the Administration has failed to manage the SPR in a 
     manner that would provide gasoline price relief to working 
     families; and
       (12) the Administration has failed to adequately demand 
     that OPEC immediately increase oil production in order to 
     lower crude oil prices and safeguard the world economy.
       (b) It is the sense of Congress that the President should--
       (1) directly confront OPEC and challenge OPEC to 
     immediately increase oil production; and
       (2) direct the Federal Trade Commission and Attorney 
     General to exercise vigorous oversight over the oil markets 
     to protect the people of the United States from price gouging 
     and unfair practices at the gasoline pump.
       (c)(1) For the period beginning on the date of enactment of 
     this Act and ending on the date that is 30 days after the 
     date of enactment of this Act--
       (A) deliveries of oil to the SPR shall be suspended; and
       (B) 1,000,000 barrels of oil per day shall be released from 
     the SPR.
       (2) If necessary to lower the burden of gasoline prices on 
     the economy of the United States and to circumvent the 
     efforts of OPEC to reap windfall crude oil profits, 1,000,000 
     barrels of oil per day shall be released from the Strategic 
     Petroleum Reserve for an additional 30 days.
                                 ______

     SEC. __. ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS.

       (a) Adjustment of Status.--
       (1) Eligibility.--The Secretary of Homeland Security 
     (referred to in this section as the ``Secretary'') shall 
     adjust the status of any alien described in subsection (b) to 
     that of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence, 
     if the alien--
       (A) applies for adjustment before April 1, 2006; and
       (B) is otherwise eligible to receive an immigrant visa, has 
     not been convicted of an aggravated felony (as defined in 
     section 101(a)(43) of the Immigration and Nationality Act), 
     and is otherwise admissible to the United States for 
     permanent residence, except that, in determining such 
     admissibility--
       (i) the grounds of inadmissibility specified in paragraphs 
     (4), (5), (6)(A), and (7)(A) of section 212(a) of the 
     Immigration and Nationality Act shall not apply; and
       (ii) the Secretary, in the unreviewable discretion of the 
     Secretary, may waive the grounds of inadmissibility specified 
     in paragraphs (1)(A)(i) and (6)(C) of such section 212(a) for 
     humanitarian purposes, to assure family unity, or when it is 
     otherwise in the public interest.
       (2) Inapplicability of certain provisions.--
       (A) In general.--In determining the eligibility of an alien 
     described in subsection (b) or (d) for adjustment of status 
     under this section or other relief necessary to establish 
     eligibility for such adjustment, the provisions of section 
     241(a)(5) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 
     1231(a)(5)) shall not apply.
       (B) Reapplication for admission.--An alien who would 
     otherwise be inadmissible under subparagraph (A) or (C) of 
     section 212(a)(9) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 
     U.S.C. 1182(a)(9)) may apply for the Secretary's consent to 
     reapply for admission without regard to the requirement that 
     the consent be granted prior to the date of the alien's 
     reembarkation at a place outside the United States or attempt 
     to be admitted from foreign contiguous territory, in order to 
     qualify for the exception to those grounds of inadmissibility 
     set forth in subparagraphs (A)(iii) and (C)(ii) of such 
     section 212(a)(9).
       (3) Relationship of application to certain orders.--
       (A) In general.--An alien present in the United States who 
     has been ordered excluded, deported, removed, or to depart 
     voluntarily from the United States under any provision of the 
     Immigration and Nationality Act may, notwithstanding such 
     order, apply for adjustment of status under paragraph (1).
       (B) Requirements.--An alien described in subparagraph (A)--
       (i) may not be required, as a condition of submitting or 
     granting such application, to file a separate motion to 
     reopen, reconsider, or vacate the order described in 
     subparagraph (A); and
       (ii) may be required to seek a stay of such order in 
     accordance with subsection (c) to prevent the execution of 
     that order pending the adjudication of the application for 
     adjustment of status.
       (C) Effect of decision by secretary.--If the Secretary 
     denies a stay of a final order of exclusion, deportation, or 
     removal, or if the Secretary renders a final administrative 
     decision to deny the application for adjustment of status, 
     the order shall be effective and enforceable to the same 
     extent as if the application had not been made. If the 
     Secretary grants the application for adjustment of status, 
     the Secretary shall cancel the order.
       (b) Aliens Eligible for Adjustment of Status.--
       (1) In general.--Except as provided under paragraphs (2) 
     and (3), the benefits provided under subsection (a) shall 
     apply to any alien who--
       (A) is a national of Liberia; and
       (B) has been physically present in the United States for a 
     continuous period, beginning not later than January 1, 2005, 
     and ending not earlier than the date on which the application 
     for adjustment under subsection (a) is filed.
       (2) Effect of absences.--An alien described in paragraph 
     (1) shall not be considered to have failed to maintain 
     continuous physical presence by reason of an absence, or 
     absences, from the United States for any periods in the 
     aggregate not exceeding 180 days.
       (3) Limitation.--Subsection (a) shall not apply to an alien 
     lawfully admitted for permanent residence, unless the alien 
     is applying for such relief in deportation or removal 
     proceedings.
       (c) Stay of Removal and Work Authorization.--
       (1) In general.--The Secretary shall provide, by 
     regulation, for an alien subject to a final order of 
     exclusion, deportation, or removal to seek a stay of such 
     order based on the filing of an application under subsection 
     (a). Nothing in this section shall require the Secretary to 
     stay the removal of an alien who is ineligible for adjustment 
     of status under this section.
       (2) During certain proceedings.--Notwithstanding any 
     provision in the Immigration and Nationality Act, the 
     Secretary shall not order any alien to be removed from the 
     United States, if the alien is in exclusion, deportation, or 
     removal proceedings under any provision of such Act and has 
     applied for adjustment of status under subsection (a), except 
     if the Secretary has rendered a final administrative 
     determination to deny the application.
       (3) Work authorization.--
       (A) In general.--The Secretary may authorize an alien who 
     has applied for adjustment of status under subsection (a) to 
     engage in employment in the United States during the pendency 
     of such application and may provide the alien with an 
     ``employment authorized'' endorsement or other appropriate 
     documentation signifying authorization of employment.
       (B) Pending applications.--If an application under 
     subsection (a) is pending for a period exceeding 180 days and 
     has not been denied, the Secretary shall authorize such 
     employment.
       (d) Spouses, Children, and Unmarried Sons and Daughters.--
       (1) Adjustment of status.--The Secretary shall adjust the 
     status of any alien to that of an alien lawfully admitted for 
     permanent residence if--
       (A) the alien is the spouse, child, or unmarried son or 
     daughter of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent 
     residence under subsection (a), if--
       (i) in the case of such a spouse, stepchild, or unmarried 
     stepson or stepdaughter, the qualifying marriage was entered 
     into before the date of enactment of this Act; and
       (ii) in the case of such an unmarried son or daughter, the 
     son or daughter is required to establish that he or she has 
     been physically present in the United States for a continuous 
     period, beginning not later than January 1, 2005, and ending

     physical presence by reason of an absence, or absences, from 
     the United States for any periods in the aggregate not 
     exceeding 180 days;
       (B) the alien entered the United States on or before the 
     date of enactment of this Act;
       (C) the alien applies for such adjustment and is physically 
     present in the United States on the date the application is 
     filed;

     visa, has not been convicted of an aggravated felony (as 
     defined in section 101(a)(43) of the Immigration and 
     Nationality Act) and is otherwise admissible to the United 
     States for permanent residence, except in determining such 
     admissibility the grounds of inadmissibility specified in 
     paragraphs (4), (5), (6)(A), and (7)(A) of section

[[Page S3756]]

     212(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act shall not 
     apply, and the Secretary may, in his unreviewable discretion, 
     waive the grounds of inadmissibility specified in paragraphs 
     (1)(A)(i) and (6)(C) of such section 212(a) for humanitarian 
     purposes, to assure family unity, or when it is otherwise in 
     the public interest; and
       (E) the alien applies for such adjustment before April 1, 
     2006.
       (2) Eligibility of certain spouses and children for 
     issuance of immigrant visas.--
       (A) In general.--In accordance with regulations to be 
     promulgated by the Secretary and the Secretary of State, upon 
     approval of an application for adjustment of status to that 
     of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence under 
     subsection (a), an alien who is the spouse or child of the 
     alien granted such status may be issued a visa for admission 
     to the United States as an immigrant following to join the 
     principal applicant, if the spouse or child--
       (i) meets the requirements in subparagraph (A) and (D) of 
     paragraph (1); and
       (ii) applies for such a visa within a time period to be 
     established by regulation.
       (B) Fees.--
       (i) In general.--The Secretary of State may retain fees to 
     recover the cost of immigrant visa application processing and 
     issuance for certain spouses and children of aliens whose 
     applications for adjustment of status under subsection (a) 
     have been approved.
       (ii) Amount; availability.--Fees collected under this 
     subparagraph--

       (I) shall be deposited as an offsetting collection to any 
     Department of State appropriation to recover the cost of such 
     processing and issuance; and
       (II) shall be available until expended for the same 
     purposes of such appropriation to support consular 
     activities.

       (e) Administrative Review.--The Secretary shall provide to 
     applicants for adjustment of status under this section the 
     same right to, and procedures for, administrative review as 
     are provided to--
       (1) applicants for adjustment of status under section 245 
     of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1255); or
       (2) aliens subject to removal proceedings under section 240 
     of such Act.
       (f) Limitation on Judicial Review.--A determination by the 
     Secretary as to whether the status of any alien should be 
     adjusted under this section is final and shall not be subject 
     to review by any court.
       (g) No Offset in Number of Visas Available.--If an alien is 
     granted the status of having been lawfully admitted for 
     permanent residence or an immigrant classification under this 
     section, the Secretary of State shall not be required to 
     reduce the number of immigrant visas authorized to be issued 
     under any provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act.
       (h) Application of Immigration and Nationality Act 
     Provisions.--
       (1) Definitions.--Except as otherwise specifically provided 
     in this section, the definitions contained in the Immigration 
     and Nationality Act shall apply in this section.
       (2) Savings provision.--Nothing in this section shall be 
     construed to repeal, amend, alter, modify, effect, or 
     restrict the powers, duties, function, or authority of the 
     Secretary in the administration and enforcement of the 
     Immigration and Nationality Act or any other law relating to 
     immigration, nationality, or naturalization.
       (3) Effect of eligibility for adjustment of status.--
     Eligibility to be granted the status of having been lawfully 
     admitted for permanent residence under this section shall not 
     preclude an alien from seeking any status under any other 
     provision of law for which the alien may otherwise be 
     eligible.
       (i) Admissions.--Nothing in this section shall be construed 
     as authorizing an alien to apply for admission to, be 
     admitted to, be paroled into, or otherwise return to the 
     United States, or to apply for or pursue an application for 
     adjustment of status under this section without the express 
     authorization of the Secretary.

requests for future funding for military operations in afghanistan and 
                                  iraq

       Sec. 1122. (a) Findings.--The Senate makes the following 
     findings:
       (1) The Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2004 
     (Public Law 108-87) and the Department of Defense 
     Appropriations Act, 2005 (Public Law 108-287) each contain a 
     sense of the Senate provision urging the President to provide 
     in the annual budget requests of the President for a fiscal 
     year under section 1105(a) of title 31, United States Code, 
     an estimate of the cost of ongoing military operations in 
     Iraq and Afghanistan in such fiscal year.
       (2) The budget for fiscal year 2006 submitted to Congress 
     by the President on February 7, 2005, requests no funds for 
     fiscal year 2006 for ongoing military operations in Iraq or 
     Afghanistan.
       (3) According to the Congressional Research Service, there 
     exists historical precedent for including the cost of ongoing 
     military operations in the annual budget requests of the 
     President following initial funding for such operations by 
     emergency or supplemental appropriations Acts, including--
       (A) funds for Operation Noble Eagle, beginning in the 
     budget request of President George W. Bush for fiscal year 
     2005;
       (B) funds for operations in Kosovo, beginning in the budget 
     request of President George W. Bush for fiscal year 2001;
       (C) funds for operations in Bosnia, beginning in budget 
     request of President Clinton for fiscal year 1997;
       (D) funds for operations in Southwest Asia, beginning in 
     the budget request of President Clinton for fiscal year 1997;
       (E) funds for operations in Vietnam, beginning in the 
     budget request of President Johnson for fiscal year 1966; and
       (F) funds for World War II, beginning in the budget request 
     of President Roosevelt for fiscal year 1943.
       (4) The Senate has included in its version of the fiscal 
     year 2006 budget resolution, which was adopted by the Senate 
     on March 17, 2005, a reserve fund of $50,000,000,000 for 
     overseas contingency operations, but the determination of 
     that amount could not take into account any Administration 
     estimate on the projected cost of such operations in fiscal 
     year 2006.
       (5) In February 2005, the Congressional Budget Office 
     estimated that fiscal year 2006 costs for ongoing military 
     operations in Iraq and Afghanistan could total 
     $65,000,000,000.
       (b) Sense of Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that--
       (1) any request for funds for a fiscal year after fiscal 
     year 2006 for an ongoing military operation overseas, 
     including operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, should be 
     included in the annual budget of the President for such 
     fiscal year as submitted to Congress under section 1105(a) of 
     title 31, United States Code;
       (2) the President should submit to Congress, not later than 
     September 1, 2005, an amendment to the budget of the 
     President for fiscal year 2006 that was submitted to Congress 
     under section 1105(a) of title 31, United States Code, 
     setting forth detailed cost estimates for ongoing military 
     operations overseas during such fiscal year; and
       (3) any funds provided for a fiscal year for ongoing 
     military operations overseas should be provided in 
     appropriations Acts for such fiscal year through 
     appropriations to specific accounts set forth in such 
     appropriations Acts.
       (c) Additional Requirements for Certain Reports.--(1) Each 
     semiannual report to Congress required under a provision of 
     law referred to in paragraph (2) shall include, in addition 
     to the matters specified in the applicable provision of law, 
     the following:
       (A) A statement of the cumulative total of all amounts 
     obligated, and of all amounts expended, as of the date of 
     such report for Operation Enduring Freedom.
       (B) A statement of the cumulative total of all amounts 
     obligated, and of all amounts expended, as of the date of 
     such report for Operation Iraqi Freedom.
       (C) An estimate of the reasonably foreseeable costs for 
     ongoing military operations to be incurred during the 12-
     month period beginning on the date of such report.
       (2) The provisions of law referred to in this paragraph are 
     as follows:
       (A) Section 1120 of the Emergency Supplemental 
     Appropriations Act for Defense and for the Reconstruction of 
     Iraq and Afghanistan, 2004 (Public Law 108-106; 117 Stat.
